The University of Connecticut Huskies etched their name in history last night, defeating the Purdue Boilermakers by a score of 75-60, and becoming the 2024 NCAA Men’s Basketball National Champions. After another dominant tournament performance, the Huskies, who finished with an overall record of 37-3, captured the elusive title of back-to-back tournament champions. UConn is the first team to do so since Florida did it 17 years ago in 2006-2007, joining a list of only eight programs that have repeated as champions.

The men’s NCAA tournament has advanced into its climactic closing weekend with the Final Four and national championship just days away. Stakes have reached an all-time high, as four formidable teams gear up for Saturday’s semifinals in Phoenix.

The Boston University men's basketball team moved onto the second round of the Patriot League tournament after defeating Loyola Maryland 76-64 Thursday night.
